[QUOTE="mnmtranching, post: 237773, member: 3937"] Yup, Ive bumped many a cow and it works great once you get the hang of it. You got to know where the calf is and its got to be far enough along so there is a little weight there. The best example I can think of off hand is, say you have a balloon filled with water with a softball floating around in it. You make a fist and start pushing agaist the balloon, get a rythem going in and back, you will start feeling the softball bouncing around. Do that with a cow and feel that,got a calf in her. Once the cow is later in her preg the calf will be big and hard, real easy to tell. mnmt [/QUOTE]
